Those differences are both simple and direct as well as complex and far reaching. It can involve just one individual girl’s attitude within your team, or society’s attitude on a national scale. These differences must be talked about, researched, recognized and applied to your individual coaching technique. To deny they exist is not only asking for problems but also admitting your own ignorance. I don’t have all the answers to be sure. But in this issue of Courtside I would like to share w ith y ou som e o f my observations based on years of exp erien ce gained w hile coaching girls and women, at the high school, A AU, Small and Large college levejs. My ideas are in a constant state of transition to meet the on going changes in both society and the world of sports. M ost coaches w ant to establish a well-disciplined p ro g ra m , co m plete w ith mandatory practices, presea son conditioning programs, and the understood dedication required to be successful. Yet some coaches struggle with hair a p p o in tm e n ts th a t have priority over practice and dates with boy friends that interfere with just about anything. Every coach who has ever coached girls has been faced with those dilemmas. What to do? It begins with your first team m eeting, where you sell yourself and your ideas to your players. They must believe in you if they are to believe in and live by the rules of your program. It also begins with a le tte r to p a re n ts w hich com m unicates those same beliefs, followed by a function for the parents so they can meet you and hopefully .give your their full stamp of approval. The parents are the heart of your program. They vote on school levies, serve on school boards and control funding for athletics, to ignore them is to doom yourself to failure. The next step is to provide Going through warm-up drills the Seattle University girls basketball team. your girls with proper role be understood and appreciated models. Taking them to see the and emulated by your players. The final step regarding the Sonics maybe a treat, but your money would be better spent well-disciplined program is to watching a quality women’s stand firm when you are team. This allows your girls to 'challenged. Don’t back down see women performing the from your beliefs. Maintain tasks you are teaching, and your respect by following subsequently realize that if through on the appropriate young women can shoot jump discipline. You don’t have to shots, hook shots, take the wield a hammer, doing as much charge and rip rebounds, so damage as you are good, but too, can girls. Take your team you do have to live up to your to a college practice and have own expectations and do what them watch just how hard has to be done. There are other problems women are capable of working, how disciplined and attentive, that plague the coaches of girls how serious and committed. and women athletes. In the What’s okay for men to do, next issue of Courtside we will isn’t necessarily acceptable for discuss some trouble spots and girls to do. But what is okay for include more; suggestions on women athletes »is more apt to how to deal with them.
